Running?

When I was young, I ran six miles three times a week and ten miles once. No shit.

I just got back from my first run in decades. One block. One. No shit.

It felt terrible. And long.

You can't really even call it running. Running involves a stride. I don't stride. I hobble.

And yet I shall persevere. Anything this miserable must be healthy.
